Emma Watson Has Actual Magic Powers

You know when you walk into a restaurant and you're hungry—like, I-resisted-having-a-snack-all-afternoon-because-I-knew-I-was-going-out-to-dinner-but-now-I-could-eat-my-arm-off hungry—but there's a wait because the restaurant your date picked (let's be serious, you didn't choose this fate) doesn't take reservations? And you have to stand there, perhaps holding a tide-you-over drink, staring at diners dining, enjoying the burrata tower you've been dreaming about all day, as your stomach grumbles?

Well, apparently Emma Watson did just that last night. According to Page Six, the Harry Potter actress walked into a New York City restaurant where there were no available seats and immediately performed a nonverbal spell someone rose to give Watson her spot. "There were no seats for them at the bar, and when a woman recognized the 'Harry Potter' star she offered up both her seat and her husband's," a witness reported. MAGIC!

But the most impressive bit? Emma Watson said no. "Emma politely declined and thanked her," the source said. "They sat down at a communal table, there was no problem sitting with others." Having the willpower to say no when someone offers you the chance to sit down and devour food without having to wait? That is some really powerful witchy shit.
